Truck 42

This 2002 E-1, 95 foot platform is the flagship of Estero Fire Rescue’s fleet of emergency response vehicles. It has all of the capabilities of EFR’s other ALS engines, plus it carries heavy equipment for Southwest Florida’s Urban Search and Rescue Team (USAR), also known as Florida’s Task Force Six. The platform can hold up to 500 pounds while delivering a stream of water and hours of breathable air. A maximum of 750 pounds can be lifted by the platform if it is not flowing water, and can be positioned in any direction including straight up or straight out to the side. Truck 42 is an amazingly functional emergency rescue vehicle that also happens to grace the top of each page of this web site.
